For Review: Important Health and Safety Reminders if Attending in person

• Allow extra time for two health & safety checkpoints at RiverCentre – one for access into the Institute and one for the City of St. Paul requirements.
• Attendees of the in-person Institute* are required to:
  • Provide proof of a negative COVID test administered within 48 hours before arrival, regardless of vaccination status. See FAQ here.
  • Complete and sign a Health Screening Questionnaire. Please review in advance. If you answer “yes” to any of the questions, please do not travel to the Institute.
  • Wear a mask at all times when in RiverCentre except when actively eating or drinking.
• If you have coworkers who may register onsite for the Institute, please forward this vital information to them to avoid long wait times.
• The City of St. Paul has an executive order with different requirements, including masking indoors and a negative test within 72 hours of entry or vaccination with a matching ID to get into the RiverCentre or any establishment serving food in the City.
